After getting the troops of a knight order from Deske, the rescue operation in Seoul finally became feasible, and they had some confidence in this.

The three of them had a secret discussion in the woods, and then worked out a well-thought-out battle plan.

The summer sun is very scorching, and the branches of the sun-dried trees are hanging on the leaves, so hot that the people around them are all down by half a beat.

Beneath the great woods, a path winds and turns, and hundreds of knights brave the scorching heat to hurry, with Cook riding at the forefront, followed by Roshabal, who never forsakes.

Roschabar was twenty-one years old and was born into an ordinary aristocratic family in Cobilon. When he was fifteen years old, his father died and his mother remarried, and from then on he made the Knight Training Camp his home, vowing eternal allegiance to the Earl of Fox Court.

With the fall of the kingdom and Fawkes's death, he now continues to fulfill his mission, tying the fate of this life to Cook forever. Although the task of rescuing Seoul was very arduous and dangerous, Roshabar was proud that dying on the battlefield was the most glorious thing for every knight.

But at this time, Roshabar had not thought of dying so early, and he was confident that he would win this mission.

Looking at the silent Cook beside him, Rossabar rode his horse and asked, "Lord Knight, are we really going to find someone to be the Barbarian's Eagle Banner?" ”

Cook looked determined, and without thinking about it, he replied directly: "Yes, this is the most crucial step for us to rescue Seoul." ”

Rossabar was a little worried, and he asked, "What should we do if our people misunderstand us?" ”

"Misunderstanding?" , Cook turned his head sideways and asked, "Misunderstanding that we defected and took refuge with the barbarians?" ”

Roshabar immediately replied: "Yes! ”

After hearing this, Cook replied seriously: "You are right, so we have to operate in secret, and this matter cannot be done publicly, especially not by the Nila people. ”

Rossabar nodded and didn't ask anything more. Soon they were walking through the woods and into the plains near the Seoul River on the east side.

The Knight people have lived on this land for hundreds of years, and there are more towns in the plains than you can count. Soon they found a small town a few dozen miles east of the river, and Cook immediately led everyone into the town.

This is an unknown oriental town, the town originally lived more than 2,000 people, but with the arrival of the Nila people, the townspeople fled to Dragon City, and now there are only more than 300 people left in the town.

The mayor was delighted to see Knight Knight, and he warmly received Cook and Rochabal, arranging a place for them to be stationed and rest.

With the help of the mayor, a hundred barbarian eagle banners began to be secretly made, and although the mayor did not know what it was for, they believed in their knights. At least for now, there has been no large-scale defection of knights in the kingdom, and the knights' reputation is still trustworthy.

While Cook and the Knights were in charge of the Imperial Eagle, Robit took Dix and the Knights of Wiedon to the mountains south of Seoul, which was another planned arrangement for the Knights to lurk in the mountains and forests in order to sneak up on the besieging Neira.

This battle plan was mainly proposed by Cook, and although Robit fully agreed, he was still very uneasy. After all, Cook is still very young, and it is obviously a very dangerous thing to let him take 600 knights of the royal capital to attack the Handong fortress, and it is difficult to escape death even if he has wings.

With the stars in the sky and the moon hanging high, Robit stood on the mountainside, overlooking Seoul in the distance, his face full of worry.

Deske stepped aside and whispered comfortingly, "Lord Robit, are you still worried about this mission?" ”

"yes!" Robit replied very melancholy: "I don't know how Cook's preparations are going, I'm really worried that he will have an accident." ”

Desco smiled and said, "It's okay, young man, just exercise more!" Without these actual combat tests, Knight would not have been able to become our god of war, wouldn't he? ”

Robit smiled and nodded, and although Deske's words made sense, he still couldn't put his mind at ease. After all, Cook is the closest person to him in this world, and if something happens to Cook, he really doesn't know how to face the future.

Robit, who has lost all his loved ones, can no longer accept more blows at this time, and the situation of everyone is very dangerous at the moment, which makes it difficult for him to put his mind at ease.

True warriors are often tempered by the baptism of war, and how can they see the gorgeous rainbow without going through the wind and rain. Ten years of practicing a sword is by no means imaginable to ordinary people, and Cook's will is more tenacious than imagined.

After a day and night of preparation by the townspeople, a hundred eagle flags have been made. After a feast with the knights, Cook had the knights leave all unnecessary clothing and set off in the evening with these flags, and set off for the Handong fortress as planned.

The territory of Seoul is located on the eastern side of the kingdom, close to the Nila Empire, which dominates the southeast side of the mainland, and there is a narrow mountain pass on the eastern border of Seoul, which is the only access to Nila from other parts of the continent, and the Handong Fortress is located in the mountain pass.

The Handong Fortress is firmly anchored in the trade lifeline of Nila, and it has been guarding the eastern border for the kingdom for a hundred years. However, with the joint invasion of the three major empires on the mainland, the fall of the royal capital and the fall of the kingdom, the knight chief stationed in the fortress gave up resistance and fled back to Seoul, which made the current Handong fortress fall directly into the hands of the Nila people.

In the Handong fortress, the Nila people stationed 500 cavalry and 2,000 archers, and the defense equipment was complete, and the arrows and food were very abundant. Under normal circumstances, even if 100,000 enemy troops attacked, it would not be possible to launch a large-scale attack in front of the fortress, and under the guard of this large army of Nila, the fortress could be kept safe and sound.

Cook's battle plan was to lead the 600 knights to attack the fortress of Handong, obviously this was not to take the fortress, but to blempty and create an opportunity for Robit to attack Seoul.

It was night when they came to the vicinity of the fortress, and Cook had the knights burn a long flame on the east side of the fortress, placing countless eagle flags in front of the fire, and causing the knights to shout and pretend to be an army of tens of thousands of knights.

The field of vision at night is limited, and the number of enemies is usually determined based on the opponent's flag. In the Tubis Empire, one eagle banner represents an army of 100 black knights, and a hundred eagle banners represent an army of 10,000 black knights, which is the establishment of five imperial knights. There are twenty knights in the entire Crusade Legion of the Tubis Empire, with a total of 40,000 black knights, and if there are 10,000 black knights in front of the fortress, it means that the Tubis people are determined to win the fortress.

The chief of the knights of Nira, who was in charge of defending the city, was a little flustered, he did not know what was going on, and he was very shocked by the sudden appearance of the Tubis. Although the Nila Empire and the Tubis Empire have long been allied, now that the Knight Kingdom has perished, and the three empires are left to divide the land of the Nate in their own ways, it is entirely possible that the conflict of interests will bring this alliance to an end.

Knowing the responsibility on his shoulders, the Knight Commander Nila calmly ordered all the troops to stand by in the fortress and prepare to defend the Handong fortress.

Cook had already expected this, although he didn't know how many Nila troops were stationed in the fortress, but he knew one thing very well, the Nila people would not easily go out of the fortress to meet the enemy, because the fortress was the only retreat and supply line for the army on the east side, and if they lost the Nila army on the east side of the Handong fortress, they would only have to wait for death.

Next for Cook is the Nyla people from the direction of Seoul, and if there is an accident in the direction of the fortress, the Nyla people besieging Seoul will definitely send people to support. There was a huge problem in front of Cook, if the number of Nila's army was not large enough, then Robit and a knight order would face great danger when they attacked Seoul. So Cook's task is very difficult, he has to attract at least 10,000 nila troops to the fortress, so that Robit can hope to free the defenders of Seoul.

The raging fire on the east flank stunned the Nila patrolmen, who hurried back to the Nyela camp in Seoul to report the matter to the Supreme Commander.

The supreme commander of the Nilasi expedition is named Arthurstore, he is Chinese New Year's Eve years old, born in a large noble family in Lehman City of the Nila Empire, and is one of the famous four guardians of the Nila Empire. Arthurston was good at commanding troops, and in his early years, he assisted King Nila in suppressing the rebels, and won the trust of King Nicholas XXV, so he became the supreme commander of the empire's western expedition.

Arthurston was a wise commander, and he had warned the king long before the Imperial army had set out, telling Nicholas XXV to warn against the ambitious Tubis. When the patrol cavalry reported the events on the east side, Arthursto shuddered, and what he feared most finally came true.

For Arthurstore, he felt that the three empires joining forces to attack the knight kingdom was originally a game, not only with the Knights, but also with the Tubis and the Beijon. Because he knew that the ultimate goal of the three empires was to unify the continent and become the only king on the continent. Therefore, Arthurstoe had no doubts about the appearance of the Tubis army in the East, but he did not expect the Tubis to move so quickly.

After listening to the report of the patrol knight, Arthursto turned to his commanders and said, "The Tubisi people are really uncontrollable, and now that Fengdu and Dragon City have not yet been resolved, they are rushing to attack us. This damn Warkas was really taken by surprise and caught us off guard. ”

One of the commanders, Elton, replied, "Your Excellency, do not be fooled by the enemy. At present, the food of the defenders of Seoul has run out, and Seoul will be taken by our army in a few days, you have to pay attention to it, maybe this is a trap for the Knights! ”

"Hmm!" , Arthur nodded again and again and said: "It makes sense, it can't be ruled out that Knight is doing ghosts." ”

Another commander named Grandet retorted: "Lord Commander, the fortress of Seoul must not be lost, the fortress is much more important than Seoul, you must not guard against it." ”

Grande's words once again hit the point of Arthurstoon's greatest concern, and Arthurstoon frowned after hearing this, and it was difficult to make a choice for a while.

Elton then opened his mouth and proposed: "Lord Commander, if you are really worried about the fortress, you can temporarily divide 2,000 cavalry to return to the fortress, so that you can also find out the actual situation over there." ”

Arthursmore nodded and said, "Well, the 2000 cavalry army will not affect us to continue to besiege Seoul, so let's do it." Grande, why don't you take 2,000 cavalry with you? ”

Grandet was very belligerent, and he did not hesitate to salute and accept the military order, and immediately turned away without saying a word.
